And all are amazing and en vogue.Originally posted by Donuthole View PostI get a kick out of this mentality. My parents said the same thing about bells when they were coming back in in the late 90s/early aughts. I'm just over 30 years old, and I've seen styles go from bells to skinny, to bells, to skinny. If the trend holds, I anticipate that we'll be back to bells in about 3-4 years, and people like GM will be saying this same thing about bell bottoms.
FTR, there are some women who look fantastic in skinny jeans.
I stand by what I said - my legs are covered when I wear leggings or skinny jeans. What the rule should say is that certain body types aren't allowed to wear them, but you know all hell would break lose at that one.what I am is what I am and I does what I does.

Once read that a couple of girls going to BYU were turned away form a lecture or test because of the jeans they were wearing. They solved the problem by going into the bathroom, taking off their clothes, and putting on their long 1980s trenchcoat-like raincoats. Made it look as if they were wearing dresses so they were let in to the lecture/test.

I like how they used a picture from 1998 to accompany the article. That is a really sweet abercrombie two-stripe sweater the kid on the right is wearing. It goes nice with his carpenter jeans and his doc-marten sandals.Originally posted by Sleeping in EQ View PostZach Cooper, you are going to hell:

*UPDATE*
Apparently the whole skinny jeans fiasco was an ugly misunderstanding caused by some douchebag zealous testing center mullah.

I think most kids have a very positive experience up there. As it matures from Ricks into BYU-I hopefully the people in charge will also.Originally posted by mUUser View PostThis reads like it's straight out of The Onion.
How do kids make it through 4 years there? Maybe if it had the payoff of a Harvard at the end you'd want to power through, but.... :yikes:

I'm not mad, puhleez. I love curvy women; my wife is curvier than a Monaco freeway.* Talk of comparative modesty at the expense of other women's dignity from some attention-monger autonymic "Hottie" makes you seem really fucking petty.Originally posted by HottieCoug View Post

I'm sorry, modesty does change from body type to body type, even within the same piece of clothing. I'm flat chested, meaning a V-neck is going to be modest on me, whereas for some other women who have a "normal" chest size it probably wouldn't be as modest because you'd have cleavage hanging out everywhere.Originally posted by wuapinmon View PostI'm not mad, puhleez.

Don't try and make me seem villainous for pointing out the obvious: modesty absolutely depends upon fit, and fit depends upon size. Period.
I'm not out to belittle curvy women. Not in the slightest. But it's infuriating that items of clothing that are perfectly fine and modest for my admittedly boyish figure are banned when women who are bursting out of their "approved" garment (ps in the fashion industry, we refer to everything as a garment) are just fine. So yeah, you better believe I'm going to stick up for the skinny girl. Why don't we turn this into a debate on how body image is so effed up. Apparently we're not allowed to be unkind to a large woman, but being unkind to a thin woman is perfectly okay.
Nu-uh.

I learned more at BYU-I than in Provo. There are a few reasons for this. Smaller class sizes and less work. I could dig deeper and take time with what I was studying because, well, I had more time. Sometimes in Provo, I was just trying to get through all the material and didn't have as much time to really soak in what I was studying. This is not a slam on Provo (if anything, it's one on me).Originally posted by RC Vikings View PostI think most kids have a very positive experience up there.

I actually left because I couldn't stand the fact that I couldn't wear shorts in the summer. Stupid, I know, but it was annoying as hell, and it started me on a path where all I thought about was the stupidity of the rules there, so I left.Jesus wants me for a sunbeam.
